Digiscoping with Leica
Leica glass deserves better than a phone held up to the eyepiece. We fit the APO-Televid spotters and the Geovid, Noctivid, Ultravid and Trinovid binoculars, so the view you paid for ends up in your camera roll. A Mountain Mag eyepiece stays on your Leica full-time and your phone attaches magnetically when you want the shot.
Which Mountain Mag eyepiece fits your Leica optics
We currently fit 8 models (5 binoculars, 3 spotting scopes). Find yours, then use the link to open the eyepiece with that option already selected. Where several models share one eyepiece it is marked shared eyepiece — order once, it fits all of them.

Models that share one eyepiece
- APO-Televid 62/77 fits: APO-Televid 62, APO-Televid 77
- Geovid R/Pro fits: Geovid Pro, Geovid R
How the Mountain Mag works on Leica optics
The system is two parts. The Mountain Mag eyepiece contours to the existing eyepiece on your optic and stays there — you glass through it as normal, and it does not have to come off. The Mountain Mag adapter goes on your phone (no special case needed) and snaps onto the eyepiece magnetically, self-centering your camera over the glass. Seat it until you feel the magnets lock and shoot. Pull the phone off when you are done; the eyepiece stays put.
You order the eyepiece by optic model (the table above) and the adapter by phone model (choose your phone here). The Mountain Mag camera app locks your phone to the right lens so it does not hunt between cameras mid-shot.
